It has been awhile since we uploaded some episodes, but we're still here and talking about more video game stuff, especially the Pokemon Gen 4 remakes and FromSoftware's upcoming Elden Ring!
-
Wow, for whatever reason, this is being uploaded much later than intended! This episode was actually sitting ready for upload but somehow flew under the radar! We talk about the Skyward Sword HD and the 2020 Game Awards (yes, it's THAT late of a notice). We only noticed because we were just about to upload a new episode!

Although this was recorded quite a few months ago, much of the topics discussed is still relevant now for GameStop, or if anything, brings into more detail with how employees dealt with changes that were happening with the onset of the pandemic. In this episode, we have new guests FDO (at the time, recently left GameStop) and Marketing (who was still working there).
We talked about the TikTok Competition, GME Stocks, courier change from UPS to FedEx, working during the release of PS5/XSX, changing to the new bestsellers game displays format and working the holidays - all during the pandemic (along with how some stores initially handled opening, if they opened, in the beginning). Also...you'll hear some knocking partway in - there were people working on the roof that we weren't aware of ahead of time, but that doesn't last very long relative to the entire recording.

Expect SPOILERS!!
And we're back! We recorded this episode way back in January 27, but due to a lot of life things, it just wasn't finished editing until recently. This is quite a long one as we discuss PlayStation Exclusives (or in the case of Horizon, previously exclusive) and predict where the sequel may take the games; as such, we've split this recording into 3 segments (although you can listen to it in full on our YouTube channel!)
This segment focuses on God of War and we have Cyrus joining in again (with the full team)!
Disclaimer: We discuss a lot of additional Nordic lore!

This segment focuses on Horizon, which isn't a very long discussion since Horizon is a completely new IP that doesn't use any previous established lore to go on! At the time, Distro and Cashwrap had not completed Horizon, so this first segment is only with Cyrus and Tradehold!

Debuting our new segment, Game Talk! Starting with the Yakuza series, in tandem with the new Yakuza: Like A Dragon release (Time Stamps below for topics)! Because we're not all always available at the same time, it becomes difficult, especially near the end of the year, to schedule a podcast, so Game Talk is a new segment where any of us can host a game topic of discussion and invite anyone else to join, without needing another CS member to be present (though they still can be).
This discussion on Yakuza brings up a lot of topics though remains spoiler free to much of anyone listening (for the most part, unless specified). This recording was meant to be published 2 weeks ago but due to many different circumstances including internet outage and editing, but what better day than Yakuza: Like A Dragon's release right? We also have this uploaded on YouTube!
Because our guests were out-of-state/country, there was a lot of delay in responses, hence why editing was done (roughly 10 mins of silence was edited out) - there were also spots that sounds like they were edited, but was actually due to mic drop-out. The recording format also of back-and-forth, as opposed to a more lively discussion, was also due to our equipment not built to handle group calls.
Time Stamps:
Our backgrounds on the series - 2:44
Start with Yakuza Kiwami or Yakuza 0? 6:06
Will they make a Kiwami 3? 8:21
Thoughts on gameplay change for Yakuza: Like A Dragon - 11:40
Will they remaster and localize the spin-off games (some spoilers mentioned here for Ishin)? 22:37
Dubbing - 34:58
Wrapping up - 48:17

Our next Profiles segment, this time focused on our soothe-singer Cashwrap! Initially, we didn't plan on having these Profiles back-to-back and wanted some normal episodes in-between (we have plenty of topics left, trust us), but we all really wanted to try the hot sauces!
Again, this is an homage to Hot Ones, though Cashwrap chose to go with boneless chicken this time! With a few minor tweaks to the Hot Ones format!
This is actually a video recording that is only available on our YouTube channel; no faces again, because as we've mentioned before, preventing any possible legal issues (again, we know, it's not as fun without seeing the facial reaction; maybe in the future)!
-
Our official 1-year anniversary since recording episode and a brand new segment! Our Profiles segment in which we focus and learn more about any members or guests, following the Hot Ones format with a few of our own tweaks, and we're starting with Distro! This is actually a video recording that is only available on our YouTube channel; no faces though, because as we've mentioned before, preventing any possible legal issues (yes, we know, it's not as fun without seeing the facial reaction; maybe down the line)! Our 1-year anniversary was actually 2 months ago, but between the current global circumstances and waiting until we were all able to be present, it was delayed until now.

Sony's PlayStation 5 event is fast-approaching with a claim of a "strong" video game line-up, while Sega is teasing a major announcement for the same day (or is it?); although Cashwrap is MIA again, we have another former coworker, Shrink, joining us in the discussion!
Also, we mentioned something exciting last episode, but we are now officially on Spotify!
-
Here's our latest episode, with the return of Cashwrap on Zoom call!
We catch up with him on his activities during self-isolation and discuss the recent Inside Xbox livestream, what systems had the best launch titles and possible future video game announcements!
We also have a very exciting announcement to make by our next episode!
-
The Nintendo Switch has gotten extremely popular amidst the pandemic, but there was a poorly marketed device that would become the technology and precursor to the Switch! Perfect Survey joins us again to discuss this handheld device!
Look forward to our next episode when we have a long-awaited return!

Have you all completed Final Fantasy VII Remake yet?
This week's bonus episode was devoted in depth to the remake - from comparing to the original, our impressions of the ending and discussing our thoughts of the saga's future
Warning: MAJOR spoilers - not just for the remake but the original as well! So if you've only played the remake and are waiting on future installments to learn the story, this is NOT for you (the dev team themselves expressed that they hope new fans will go back and play the original)
This is our longest podcast recording yet (by about an hour!) so for reference, our discussions regarding the ending and future installments start at about an hour and a half in!
-
Hope you're all staying safe! In this next episode, we have FuncoLand returning once again to talk about the perceptions people have of GameStop, and more discussions regarding Reggie Fils-Aime joining their Board of Directors and GameStop as an essential business.
-
Final Fantasy VII Remake is quickly approaching - who's excited?
In honor of the 23-year celebratory release, we have a bonus episode where we talk about our memories of the original Final Fantasy VII (caution: some spoilers were mentioned), thoughts on the upcoming remake, and the franchise.
We have special guest Field Destroy back with us today, while Cashwrap is still under the weather. We did go off on a tangent semi-often, but that's to be expected at this point.
-
You know what's frequently discussed with GameStop? Gutting and resealing display games, and selling opened games as New.
We have Field Destroy back with us for this episode to talk about this very subject!
-
For this episode, we have a special guest that's a personal friend of Tradehold, FuncoLand! We discuss the work environment, policies and transitioning to GameStop from....well, FuncoLand! We also touch upon the early years of GameStop and how it is now!
Once again, Cashwrap couldn't join us as he's recovering from (regular) illness and decided to sit out for safety precautions.
Disclaimer: A decent amount of retro gaming talk here!
-
We have a new recording today, coincidentally recorded before and uploaded during GameStop's delivery service Deliver@Door.
This episode discusses Reggie Fils-Aimé joining GameStop's Board, as well as GameStop's response as an "essential" business amidst the Covid-19 pandemic, with our special guest Perfect Survey!
-
While waiting for Distro to arrive, Tradehold talks to our special guest, Perfect Survey, about what's currently hot in the video game market!
-
In our latest episode, we respond to the most recent news surrounding GameStop amidst declining revenue and the hopeful revitalization from next-gen launches.
Now, we did this recording before the news about Reggie and JK joining their Board of Directors, which we will instead get into in our following recording.
